K far - infrared hot - electron multi - quantum - well detectors
The responsivity to long wavelength ~513 and 1253 mm! far-infrared ~FIR! radiation and the root mean square noise voltage has been measured for one bulk GaAs and two GaAs/AlGaAs multiquantum-well ~MQW! hot-electron photodetectors as a function of temperature from 4.49 to 77 K. From these data the noise-equivalent power ~NEP! was determined for each device over the same temperature range. The MQ...
متن کاملElectron mobilities approaching bulk limits in "surface-free" GaAs nanowires.
Achieving bulk-like charge carrier mobilities in semiconductor nanowires is a major challenge facing the development of nanowire-based electronic devices. Here we demonstrate that engineering the GaAs nanowire surface by overcoating with optimized AlGaAs shells is an effective means of obtaining exceptionally high carrier mobilities and lifetimes. We performed measurements of GaAs/AlGaAs core-s...
متن کاملSimulation and Design of an Organic Quantum Film Electrooptic Switch
In this paper the simulation and design of a quantum-film electro-optic switch is considered. This photonic device, is made from a new organic dipolar material called MNA or 2-methyl-4 nitroaniline, which possesses a high merit in comparison with it's inorganic counterparts (e.g. LiNbO3, GaAs, InSb, Quartz, etc). Montecarlo method is used to simulate the photon-it-electron interaction in this m...
متن کاملPHOTOCONDUCTNITY QUENCHING IN A GaAs OPENING SWITCH PULSED POWER SYSTEM E. E. Funk and Chi
The use of a GaAs photoconductive closing and opening switch in an inductive energy storage system has, in the past, required a custom built laser with optical pulse shaping. We now describe a system which may be operated by a simple, Q-switched laser pulse. We have designed a high impedance (500-Q) system which provides a switch conduction time which is sustained longer than the laser pulse. F...
متن کاملThe Role of Deep Level Traps in the Optically Controlled
A numerical solution for the transient photoconductivity in the laser-activated bulk semi-insulating GaAs switch has been obtained, in which the influence of EL2 and other traps on the optical generation rates and the recombination rates of free carriers has been determined. Calculated photocurrent pulses are compared with the experimental results of switching measurements under conditions of l...
